Has anybody ever use Dutch Boy or Pittsburgh paints? This HO I'm going to be starting a job for shortly has said that he's going to be buying one of those brands because he's a big Menard's shopper. Given that those 2 only come from a big box store, will they suck to work with? I certainly do not want a re-do of Behr or Valspar. I mean, I'll try to use any paint, but let's face, some are worse than others.
When I do this job and the PPG works out, I will request to use it on all future jobs. Starting to be disappointed with SW and we don't have a BM here. It's either SW, Behr/Glidden (Home Depot), Easy Living (Sears), Valspar (Lowe's) or Pittsburgh (Menard's).
Yes, I agree John. I don't really buy into the whole "Paint and primer in one" line. I almost always prime my surfaces with at least a flat white ceiling paint before painting. At the minimum. By the way, I used the Pittsburgh on this said job and I was amazed.
